The inspiration for my jewellery often comes from the most modest of things and can not be defined within a certain style. Simple, elegant shapes excite me but I am not afraid to go overboard and enjoy the profusion of decoration.

At long last my jewellery has gone live and is on sale on Hello Pretty. This is an amazing new website that is really trying to promote the incredible work of South African designers. It's a thrill to be accepted onto this site and to have my jewellery showcased with such an abundance of local talent. Go and have a look at what is on offer and maybe you will find something to tickle your fancy.

About Me

After working in the jewellery retail industry for a number of years, I decided that it was time to spread my creative wings and dive into running my own business. You could call it my New Year's resolution.

I've always wanted to be my own boss and even went as far as studying Small Business Management. Though this course was a short-lived one for me, the idea of having my own business stuck. I did, however, plan on a very different venture which would involve, books, cakes, books, oh and more books.

After studying for my Bachelor of Technology in Jewellery Design and Manufacture, this business dream has extended to include designing and manufacturing my own ranges of jewellery.

I suppose you could call me a magpie but sparkly is not the only thing that attracts my eye. Beautiful, clever design and seamless manufacture will hold my attention for quite a while.

However, as I've mentioned, books will always be my true love. It's a good thing that you can find amazing jewellery bound together between hardboard. A marriage of two of my favorite things.

Don't be surprised to see my latest jewellery design rubbing photo edges with my latest book hero on this site. Sometimes I can't contain myself when I come across a book I want to share with the world.

Oh and no I am not the book blogger Maryse (who shares my name) though she is really awesome and I spend a great deal of my time on her blog site.
